She Was The Universe - The Ocean[00:00:00]

I had a dream which was not all a dream:[00:00:11]

The sun was extinguished[00:00:16]

And the stars wandered dark-ling in space[00:00:19]

Ray-less and pathless[00:00:23]

And the icy Earth swung blind and blackened in the moonless air[00:00:25]

And men forgot their passions in the dread of this their desolation[00:00:33]

And all hearts were chilled into a selfish prayer for light:[00:00:40]

They did live by watchfires[00:00:45]

And the throats of crowned kings[00:00:47]

Habitations of all things which dwell[00:00:50]

We're burnt for beacons[00:00:53]

Oh Lord[00:00:56]

I lack strength I lack strength[00:00:57]

To turn and leave you[00:01:04]

There's no confidence I lack strength[00:01:11]

In my hesitation[00:01:19]

Happy were those who dwelt within the eye of the volcanoes[00:01:26]

Their mountain-torch: A fearful hope was all the world contained[00:01:32]

Forests were set on fire[00:01:37]

But hour by hour they fell and faded[00:01:39]

The crackling trunks extinguished with a crash[00:01:43]

And all was black[00:01:48]

The brows of men by the despairing light wore an unearthly aspect[00:01:50]

The flashes fell upon them; Some lay down and hid their eyes[00:01:59]

And some did rest their chins upon their clenched hands and smiled[00:02:05]

Oh Lord[00:02:10]

I lack strength I lack strength[00:02:11]

To turn and leave you[00:02:18]

There's no confidence I lack strength[00:02:25]

In my hesitation[00:02:33]

She was the universe[00:02:57]

She was the universe[00:03:12]

And vipers crawled[00:03:53]

And twined themselves among the multitude[00:03:55]

Hissing but sting-less[00:04:00]

They were slain for food[00:04:01]

A meal was bought with blood[00:04:04]

And each sat apart[00:04:09]

Gorging himself in gloom[00:04:11]

No love was left[00:04:14]

Oh Lord[00:04:15]

I lack strength I lack strength[00:04:17]

To turn and leave you[00:04:23]

There's no confidence I lack strength[00:04:31]

In my hesitation[00:04:38]

I lack strength I lack strength[00:05:01]

To turn and leave you[00:05:08]

There's no confidence I lack strength[00:05:15]

In my hesitation[00:05:23]
